Today, the Phillies placed starting pitcher Roy Halladay on the 15-day disabled list with inflammation in his throwing shoulder. Halladay said the pain is something new this spring, and that it began after his last start. "It started the morning after I pitched against Pittsburgh," Halladay said. "I woke up...

WELLS FARGO CENTER- An abundance of injuries to key players. A patchwork defense with some names the casual fan wouldn't recognize at first glimpse. A mountain to climb to reach even the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference playoff picture. It doesn't matter. The Philadelphia Flyers returned home, one night... Continue reading

In a move that probably won't be a huge factor in 2013, the Philadelphia Eagles traded running back Dion Lewis to the Cleveland Browns for linebacker Emmanuel Acho. Lewis had 13 carries for 69 yards (5.3 YPC) and one touchdown last season for the Eagles. Acho spent the entire 2012... Continue reading

'Broad Street Bullies' is the nickname that was given to the Philadelphia Flyers of old that used an extremely physical style to "bully" and intimidate opponents on the ice.

Seems legit. A seemingly sarcastic 76ers fan is selling two tickets to Tuesday night's contest against the Orlando Magic for $1 million. That's right; $500,000 apiece to sit in the upper levels of the Wells Fargo Center and enjoy some pretty bad basketball. Of course, there are seats available for... Continue reading

In the National Football League, there are positives about a team finishing the season with an abysmal 4-12 record.

The 'Harlem Shake' is a fad/craze/sensation that has been making its rounds on YouTube and social media sites over the past couple of weeks. It is admittedly starting to get old, but it's really hard not to enjoy this one. The Flyers first goal in last night's 6-5 victory over... Continue reading

The Flyers may be just 6-7-1 in 2013, but that doesn't mean they aren't one of the top five franchises in the NHL over the past ten plus seasons. The graphic above, shown on the NHL Network this morning, shows exactly where the Flyers stand among the great franchises in... Continue reading

Michael Vick will remain an Eagle for at least one more season, and maybe the Flyers wish James van Riemsdyk had a restructured deal to stay in Philadelphia right now.

Last season, the Phillies found themselves in a huge hole heading into the last two months of the season.
